µTorrent 1.8 Stable released

[Robert]

BT client

 

Yes. Finally. After a year of development, 1.8 has finally gone stable. The main major feature added is Teredo (see General preferences) and IPv6 support, but there's a slew of smaller features, changes and improvements. The changelog is absolutely massive, so check it out down below.

 

For those with "HTTP 400" error or completely non-working RSS, that is a problem with NOD32. Please disable IMON or upgrade to 3.x.

 

Other major features are bypassing the Windows system cache (see the Disk Cache settings), significantly improved proxy support, and magnet URIs.

- Fix: crash with Torrent and RSS items selected when setting labels

- Fix: write MIME associations to a user-writable location in the registry, for limited user accounts
